Areas we recruit into

Commercial & Business Development

Our Commercial & Business Development team plays a key role in supporting the rest of the business to develop opportunities for new and existing customers. They manage the pipeline of future prospects as well as leading all of our tendering and direct sales work. You’ll work as part of a dynamic team to deliver results which really make the difference to our Operations.

Finance

Like any other business, Finance plays an integral role in managing the numbers. Our team closely manage customer accounts and help our senior leaders make strategic business decisions. You’ll expect to work closely with managers across the business advising them on financial planning and forecasting.

Fleet management

As you’d expect with a fleet as large as ours, it takes a lot of organisation. Ensuring our vehicles comply with DVSA guidelines is vital and so they carry out stringent testing and maintenance reviews of every vehicle in our fleet. They also organise the commissioning and de-commissioning of vehicles as and when our fleet size changes due to seasonal variations. You’d be working as part of a 24/7 support team with the highest profile in the business.

Human Resources (HR) and Training

Our business is all about people and our HR and Training teams make sure we have the right people in the right place with the right skills. They steer how we organise ourselves to meet the diverse needs of our customers and ensure we remain a place people want to come and work. You’ll be in the centre of the business advising managers and team leaders on all aspects of people leadership and helping our employees to fulfil their potential at work.

IT systems and processes

To ensure we continue to be an industry leader we continually invest in innovative technology and partner with some of the world’s leading tech organisations, including IBM. During the course of our day to day operations we create and capture huge volumes of data which helps us manage our 24/7 operation. You’ll be central to our ongoing development and advancement.

Operational management

Our operations are diverse – trucks and trailers are only a small part of what we do day to day. As an end to end logistics provider, we are involved at every stage of the supply chain, working across sectors as varied as Construction and E-Commerce. Whether it’s leading a team of warehouse operatives or planning the best route to ensure we meet all of our customer expectations and performance indicators, you will enjoy a varied set of activities.

Meet our people

Meet our Commercial Manager, Jessica

I’ve worked here since September 2014 and no two days are ever the same. My job involves working on commercial and solution designs for a variety of operational customers. We have exciting growth aspirations as a company and I enjoy being involved in developing opportunities for new and existing customers. I have found everyone here extremely helpful and we genuinely support and encourage people to develop themselves. I am currently working on my CIMA qualification and have completed 14 of the 16 exams.

Meet our Fleet Project & Asset Manager, Simon

I started working here in 2007 as a driver and have worked in a variety of operational roles including warehouse, operations and shift manager. I was always interested in working in the Fleet department and I am proud to be part of the team that is responsible for keeping our famous trucks and trailers looking smart and on the move. Working in Fleet is very varied and I am currently looking to complete my ADR training to support our specialist work on fuel tankers.

Meet Warehouse Operative, Aurelia

I started working here in August 2016 as a cleaner and then progressed to work in the warehouse moving pallets. Now I have been trained as a Fork Lift Truck driver which I really like. This is the best place I have worked as it is great to have the opportunity to learn new things. I aspire to be a Trainer in the future and I’m currently developing my administration skills to help with that.

Meet Retail General Manager, Darren

I get a lot of job satisfaction working with customers and helping them to solve challenges. No two days are every the same and you can’t always plan for what needs to be done in a short timescale. Teamwork is key to our success and we work really well together, always supporting and encouraging one another to do our best. It’s great to be part of a growing business and I am keen to build more experience and develop even more in the coming months and years.

Meet Recruitment Advisor, Rebecca

I love speaking to people so being in HR is a great fit for me. In Recruitment we are always looking to get the right candidate for the right job and there’s no better feeling when I achieve that! I am actively involved in every stage of the recruitment process, telephone screening candidates, interviewing and on-boarding new-starters. It’s a fantastic, growing company to be part of and there are many routes for internal progression, which is actively encouraged.
